BED-PLATE FOR PAPER-RAG ENGINES.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 224,079, dated February 3, 1880.

- Application filed December 31, 1879.

To all whom it mag concern Be it known that 1, GEORGE A. OoRsER, of Leicester, in the county of Worcester and Commonwealth of Massachusetts, have made certain new and useful Improvements in Bed- Plates for Paper-Rag Engines; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being bad to the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this specification.

To enable those skilled in the art to which my invention belongsto make and usethe same, I will proceed to describe my invention more in detail.

In the drawing, which represents a plan View of one of my bed-plates, the parts marked A and B represent the two outer plates, whichare held together by meansof bolts passing through said plates and the intermediate parts, with nuts (l for holding them in place. The intermediate parts consist ot'aseries ofparallel plates, D D, between each set of which is arranged a plate, E, bent or formed with a series of angles, so that it will first strike one parallel plate, I), and then the other, as shown at a, a in the drawing, which represents the relative arrangement of the parts very fully.

The parallel plates D D are bent in their centers to correspond with the form of the outer plates, A B;consequen tly the latter plates answer the purpose of plates DD on the outsides of the two angular plates E E.

Between the plates D D and E wood filling .F F is securely inserted, and held firmly in dififerent directions by the series of angles of- 0 the plates E; consequently the stock is cut and mixed in a very uniform and perfect manner, as those skilled in the art will readily understand.

The plates 1) D, when arranged parallel with each other, with an open space, I), as represented in the drawing, in combination with an angular plate, E, arranged in each alternate space, alternately spread, turn, and mix the stock in a very perfect manner.

Having described my improved bed-plate for paper-rag engines, what I claim as my in vention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

The combination of a series of parallel plates, D D, with a series of bent or angular plates, E, relatively arranged, as and for the purposes set forth.

GEORGE A. CORSER.
